U-factor gives the rate of heat transfer through the window-from inside to outside when it is cold and from outside to inside when it is hot. The lower the U-factor, the better the insulating properties, resulting in greater energy efficiency.

Solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) is defined when sunlight hits a window and the solar heat is absorbed and subsequently released inward. The SHGC represents the fractional amount of the solar energy that ends up warming the house. The lower the SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits.

Visible transmittance (VT) is the measure of how much visible light passes through a window. This is influenced by glass selection, glazing as well as the amount of the opening taken up by non-transparent components such as the frame. The higher the VT, the better potential to maximize daylight.
